14:40 not amazing those bikes sell around 3 grand all day long with half the milage in fine shape that would be a mistake to try save a few hundred on a high mileage one

Hey! I’m the one selling the red 07 SV650! Appreciate the kind words man! It’s still for sale if anyone’s interested!

[@captaindickity1349]

End up selling it?

[@aestheticsvibes6435]

@Davey Smith That's insultingly low, he can sell it on the aftermarket for parts to parts and still have more 400 bucks and plus some trade stuff and store experience than your offer

[@Jump-n-smash]

Is the bike still for sale?

I love Yammie Noob. He can identify a little transponder but doesn't know what a Mustang seat is.

[@deadprivacy]

the vfr started in the 80s, was rushed into production for competition, its wheels wobbled, it ate its own cams due to head oiling direct from the clutch, had a flat plane crank and a wobbly frame, murderous air forks that were linked to the brakes -drank fuel like an airliner yet was one of the greatest sounding bikes ever made. shared its engine with the magna but had that flat plane crank. the good ones came out in the nineties, different and saner firing order on the v4 , one of the best bikes ever made, they go on forever...

If you think that 95 katana (suziki gsx750f sport touring motorcycle) looks crusty you should really see mine😁, it doesn't have rusty rotors but it has no fairings, a crusty exhaust and garbage paint, you'd love it, gotta start somewhere though right, and I'm bringing it back from the dead

[@gerardofiano4866]

The 999r was almost as fast as the DesmosediciRR and they came out at the same time. It is still cheaper than what it cost back then, which was around 40k, and it has been greatly updated. Definitely not for everyone but it is worth every penny.

[@simonschoettler3852]

Hey Yammie Noob, happy New Year and great to finally see you with the 'It came from Craigslist' series. Love your content and humorous moderation!!! Many greetings from Bangkok/Thailand

A new craigslist episode!!! Thank you papa yams. I really love this series.

[@ytoblivion7753]

Gonna comment on the triumph sprint ST, my dad owns a blue one that he’s had from new since 1998 and he absolutely trashed it back in 2019 after riding it through a British winter, me and him have spent the last year completely restoring the bike, everything vapour blasted and powder coated to factory fresh condition, only things we didn’t touch were the fairings, the frame and the engine, absolutely beautiful bike and I used to to pass my full A class bike license last year and I loved it

[@alexanderkoufodontis2092]

Mustang is a company that makes aftermarket seats for Harley Davidson motorcycles

[@JT-cloverbottomt]

Yammie....Mustang seat on the Boss Hoss bike is a custom seat from Mustang. They build custom seats for most HD models and are much more comfortable than factory seats. Mustang is in competition with Corbin seats. Corbin wins in my book. Love the video. Thank you. MLLHR!

[@xavierjasperundang4118]

Previously being involved in vehicle trading (leasing, buying, selling, carloans - car, trucks, bikes), normally, if a stock part is removed and replaced with oem, it may risk the integrity of the vehicle and so the price decreases regardless of how much was the amount of performance parts put into it. Performance parts only sell well if sold privately amongst hobbyists, collectors, and like-minded individuals.

[@ImTheCheeseWizard]

Mustang seats are a brand of mostly custom cruiser seats that is located in Massachusetts, I know some people who have worked there. I got a 2001 Vulcan Nomad on the real cheap that has one of them. Super comfortable, like a good couch.

[@nkha23]

No way. I'm from Mass and I just looked up Mustang after you mentioned it. The town it's located in is 20 minutes from me. Lol

I'm near Portland. Still mourning the loss of the Sandy Blvd. Moto Guzzi/Aprilia dealer. Had a 90 Z1. Loved it but i'm not sure about the riding position on most of these at my age (68) but a Kawasaki Concourse or a Moto Guzzi Norge looks to be right in my wheel house.

[@ryandebolt]

My father had a vfr 1200 from that era, it didn't have the dual clutch transmission , just a good old 1 down five up. Bike is fast in a straight line, easily pulling 100 mph in 3rd gear. it was heavy though and scary in high speed corners due to that. he sold it and bought his fz6r back off of me so I could graduate to an R6 ;).

[@seattlegrrlie]

I love the Craigslist Yammi commentary. Welcome back!

[@iverson4361]

I saw a stretched Ninja 400 yesterday...and that changed my life

[@GrapefruitMoto]

Funny about that GSXR750 track bike, a dude on a local riding page on FB I'm on bought it and is going to be racing it in the WMRRA if I remember correctly in Washington.

[@lunar-firefly]

I was seriously hoping you'd found, and reviewed the bike I just bought from Portland. It's a 1980 Kawasaki KZ440 D1 LTD. It's absolutely gorgeous, and in fantastic condition given its 40 yr old age. Listing was up until yesterday. In any case, great video. Looking forward to more It Came From Craigslist vids.

I just bought a nearly pristine 2002 Honda VTX 1800 with only 6k miles for $4k off the facebook marketplace. You can NOT underestimate what you can get in the grey market with a couple grand and some patience.

[@DJWylde03]

Mustang seats are custom comfortable seats made for touring.

[@tosickristian7365]

The 999 owner tried to make it look like the wsbk. Wich in my opinion is one of the coolest looking bikes ever. That‘s why it also has a bigger tank and a different back end. One thing the wsbk has differently is the frame, wich has another pipe at the top. And also the swingarm. But this looks fenomenal. Greet to poppa yam

[@Timochat_]

Bought my bike on the French Craigslist 2009 MT-03 660 Full Akrapovic exhaust system It is, the single BEST A2 legal bike.

[@reverendgaddy2435]

Portland motorcycle listings are totally INSANE. You see one bike advertised for 1K + more than another listing of the exact same bike ALL the time. People must think that YOU should be paying for how much THEY loved their bikes before they decided they had to sell them Totally clueless. No way, pal. The bike is worth what the bike is worth, not what your dreams are worth to you... If you don't want to sell the bike, them don't waste your time writing a love letter to your rod on Craigslist!

[@SpellboundStats]

Mustang is a popular aftermarket seat company for HD owners, it is similar to a Corbin in both price and quality, some people prefer it's more plushy padding than that of the Corbin.

[@jospehconijn1017]

just bought a 2006 SV650 with 7k miles for $2500. i just gotta replace the back brake cause its having problems. but got it for a steal and very very happy with it.

Hi hammy boob. The KTM RC8 R has the “track mode” on its gauge cluster and is already capable of providing those functions. Just wanted peeps to be jelly. The truth is though, I haven’t had it on the track yet as I am scared shitless of it. I wanna get a 600 or 750 like you recommended. A used one that I don’t give a shit about crashing, but can meet the track safety requirements. Probably my next bike. I don’t live near a track, but I do want to start doing weekends in Texas. Appreciate all your videos man. Keep it up.

[@SupaBuma]

So Happy This Is Back!

[@Veekator]

Love this...I'm from the Pdx, Vancouver area. In fact I bought a beautiful low mileage 2005 Vulcan from Motorcycle warehouse. Those guys are honest and old school. Many bikes up here are in good shape because we don't have long riding seasons with the rain, cold that we get. So you are basically going to find a sweet bike from someone whos taken care of it or someone whos burned the hell out of it. Bad weather and Bike theft is bad up here so most bikes are kept indoors...

[@gregorytimmons4777]

Pretty non acidic rain in this area helps a lot. Err, it did before thousands of homeless started relieving themselves outside.

[@Khamzes]

Lol wow I just recently bought my triumph from the same dealer you saw listing the street triple. That bike wasn't there when I was looking so hopefully it found a good home

[@armadnt]

Got my own Speed Triple the other day... a week before our country went into lockdown.

[@Panda-nk4ec]

So crazy! Yesterday, I was just thinking how much I missed the Craiglist videos. I thought of mentioning something, but I figured my comment wouldn't have been read. Well, I guess I didn't need to comment since you can read minds!

[@atlascormac6273]

I used to work at a chevy dealer and the owner did Boss Hoss on the side. They were chevy 350s and he would sometimes pull them for a zz502. They were like $50k

[@AleksiJoensuu]

Nah, no worries. I have easily started up a 3 year non-running bike (Yamaha FZ6) with the old gas in it. All it needed was a battery charge. I think it may be more difficult with carbureted bikes but this one was no problem at all.

14:25 for anyone out there whos takiny this advice no a sv650 for 2700 with 25,000 miles is not a good deal your trying to save a few hundred bucks they sell around 3 grand all day long with half the mileagr those things suck there a v twin but dont have extra torque for some reason

[@BangChief_AllIsOne]

Turbo Busa for beginner bike. Thanks for the advice. Salute

As for the custom turbo busa's, they should charge what it would cost from the factory unless you request it a certain way and someone does it for you.

Yammie, the Boss Hoss is a legit v8 powered bike/company. Some of them have big block Chevy engines and I have seen them with horsepower levels up to 1000 HP. Nevertheless because they are so large an unwieldy I doubt one of them could outrun a Turbo Hayabusa.

[@GrAYvTrAnE]

Transponder means they didnt just do track days, they actually raced it against other riders, even if only at the club level. Most club levels use the transponder to track your points, not just lap times.

[@yammienoob]

Interesting - at my local tracks they use transponders for track days and racing. I didn't see any safety wires on the bike though, but given the level of mods, AMA stickers, numbers, etc. I figure it's a race bike

[@GrAYvTrAnE]

@@yammienoob you absolutely can use a transponder for just tracking lap times, but they are really helpful for the folks in Timing & Scoring so we know where you are in that pack of loudly colored everything that just flew by at 120mph. But you are right, no safety wires, no way it would pass tech.
